Scientists believe they have finally worked out how the mighty albatross â a seabird capable of travelling 10,000 miles in a single journey and circumnavigating the globe in 46 days â manages to fly without expending almost any energy.
Albatrosses take several years to get their full adult breeding plumage. The wingspans of the largest great albatrosses (genus Diomedea) are the largest of any bird, exceeding 340 cm (11.2 ft), although the other species' wingspans are considerably smaller at no more than 1.75 m (5.7 ft). The wings are stiff and cambered, with thickened streamlined leading edges.
